  • I can’t disagree that things are shit, but that’s not a reason to treat yourself like shit. Even if you don’t have a long life, going to the grave with tense af shoulders isn’t comfortable either. If you’re able, stretching and walking in the sunshine will at least add some comfort. Nothing is good but that’s no excuse to be an accelerationist to destroy your body.

  • I honestly can’t say with 100% certainty but I can speak to my experience with playing in an ensemble. For small sets, think a duet like violin and piano, usually there is an agreed upon “lead” and the other player(s) match them. In larger ensembles, band or orchestra, the conductor is god so we should be following them for tempo and queues. That being said, we listen to each other for certain queues and phrases to know when to join in. Generally we match whatever percussion or bass is doing, because that’s usually where time is kept.

  • It’s massive bull shit that I have to use my lunch and PTO to go to Dr appointments and the like. I am losing my mind to because I need to call my bank, but they’re only open when I am at work. Like bro! I don’t want to talk about my personal banking shit anywhere near my coworkers. I know that there is the claustrophobic phone office, but that room sucks! I just save up all of that shit for my WFH days.

  • I think it’s adorable that people believe that the capitalists would do away with female labor instead of going back to the good old days of just devaluing it. The myth that women didn’t work outside the home is a fiction. Only the upper classes could afford such a luxury. Poor woman always had to work, often for much less pay.

  • You’re not wrong, but I want to see both. I am thrilled that they’re at least addressing one injustice, while still advocating for more progress.

    *Edit- I am hoping that this will change the perception that prison labor is somehow less valuable than civilian labor.

  • High rise pantyhose tend to be very comfortable as long as it isn’t too hot. They’re nice because they don’t slide down. Most have some extra elastic that helps keep your belly looking smoother and flatter, as well as keeping the lines from showing.

    My issue with low rise is that if it’s not up to your waist there’s a higher risk of them sliding down. It’s super uncomfortable when you’re walking and the crotch of your pantyhose is now halfway down your thigh. There’s no good way to fix it either without going to the bathroom to adjust. Slipping does depend quite a bit on your build, the pantyhose size and type, and the brand, so trial and error will find you the best ones.

    Best of luck finding good hose!

  • I try to pick a small activity that I cannot do in bed and needs to be done regularly. For me, that’s practicing my instrument. Doesn’t need to be an intense practice, just picking it up and doing some scales and warm ups tends to kick me into a different mode. Also, being part of an orchestra provides the external pressure which means I have to do it.

  • The code stack at my company. At one time, I was confident that I could affect change, add modern features, and make the process form streamlined and user friendly. Now I get to explain our tech debt to our new not yet soulless new hires.

  • They actually do care believe it or not. When our city council was voting on municipal fiber we showed up to petition our conservative city council representative to vote in favor. Guess who also attended, a representative from our federal senator’s office. Oh man the look on his face when only 3 members of the public showed up, two of them major supporters of municipal broadband, and the third spoke up to agree with us. Mmmm priceless. The city council man and conservative rep were so damn flustered. The senator’s rep took notes the whole time and we got to talk to him one on one. These outreach events do way more than you would think, this is how they gauge what they can get away with. Don’t let them discourage you, show up and bitch!

  • New Rule

  • Spider is one of my all time favorites. I loved the LN, the world building was fantastic. The way the author laid out the mysteries of the world and the dynamics was perfection. Also, it’s a isekai that forces its characters to actually deal with living in another world. It’s not a throwaway plot point that explains why they’re so much better, smarter, ect than the locals.

  • Watch. It.

  • Ok so I know that this is controversial, but if I recommend One Piece to a new person I recommend the live action. I know it has its flaws, BUT, it cleans up the pacing issues that I had in the early series. It honestly feel way more accessible than the daunting +1000 episodes, that’s not a binge watch, that’s a depressive episode.

    Mushroom Pizza

    Grocery store had a huge bag of discounted mushrooms so time to experiment. Cooked down the mushrooms and sautéed some onions to go with. The base is garlic olive oil. Cheese is just mozzarella but next time I plan on adding either goat cheese or swiss for a bite.
